Chumbe Island Coral Park detail

Situated on Chumbe Island, in a Marine Protected Area off the coast of Zanzibar, Chumbe Island Coral Park is located in an award-winning private nature reserve founded to preserve the island's exceptional environment. The small, state-of-the-art eco-lodge offers accommodation in unique thatched bungalows situated right on the beach.

Explore the beauty of Chumbe Island in the company of a trained park ranger or you can set out on your own with the help of laminated cards and leaflets available. Snorkel through the shallow water Reef Sanctuary, explore the Forest Reserve or look for historical monuments. Alternatively, allow yourself a lazy day at the beach watching dhows and outrigger boats go by.

Rooms

Eco-Bungalow

Chumbe Island Coral Park’s seven double- or twin-bed, en suite eco-bungalows are located between the beach and the forest. Built with local materials such as mangrove poles and coconut-leaf thatch, these private bungalows overlook the sea and have hot showers and large living areas decorated with African art and colourful fabrics.

To preserve Chumbe Island's exceptional environment, the accommodation features state-of-the-art eco-architecture. These eco-bungalows make use of natural resources to supply you with necessities: rainwater is collected from the roof during the rainy season and stored for use; compost toilets have been installed; the water from the showers is recycled through plant beds; and lights are powered by photovoltaic panels on the roof.

Facilities

Filtered water is pumped through solar-powered heating systems for showers and hand-basins.

Additional solar panels on the roof of the bungalows provide electricity for normal usage.

Dining

Meals at the Chumbe Island Coral Park are enjoyed under the impressive roof of the visitor's centre which offers stunning views of the sea between Zanzibar and the mainland.

Dishes are a mixture of local Zanzibarian flavours with Arabic and Indian influences with both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options.
